Anders, There's a bit of a clash between http://gdcwin.sourceforge.net/ and Ubuntu.  In the gdcgnu page gdc-4.2 is described as experimental, but in Ubuntu 9 apt-get install gdc will get you 4.2. To get 4.1 you have to be specific - apt-get install gdc-4.1.

The 4.2 version has problems as we have already noted with the nested.nested bug.

Should we be telling Ubuntu people specifically install gdc-4.1?
